More Info - General
Where can my agency purchase a seminar registration and how do we get billed for class attendance?
To apply for the Management Development Center seminars, contact your agency Training Officer. You can also enter a registration request online on this website. For information about registering, call 304-870-8008 or email us at register@opm.gov. You will be directed to the account registration specialist who works with your agency. Tuition that is covered by a training document will be billed at the end of the course. If a purchase card is used for registration it will be processed at the time of registration.
Can I get college credit for attending a seminar?
Several seminars are ACE accredited for either or both undergraduate and graduate credit. Information on each seminar will specify the type and amount of credit for each seminar. We can assist you with applying for ACE credits for your seminar. Contact Carra Carlton if you have any questions. She can be reached at carra.carlton@opm.gov or 303.671.1022.
Where do I find a course catalog and schedule?
Information about leadership development seminars can be found in the catalog. You can also call the Customer Service Office at 304-870-8008 and ask to speak with one of our account registration specialists.
What if I need to cancel or send a substitute?
All registrations are FINAL and tuition is NON-REFUNDABLE. Should you be unable to attend your scheduled session, your agency will have the option of re-scheduling you only if the request is made in writing NO LATER THAN FOUR WEEKS prior to the start date of the session. Your agency may have the option of sending a substitute to attend in your place. Please contact your account registration specialist. If you do not have the contact information, please call the Customer Service Office at 304-870-8008 or by email at register@opm.gov, and you will be directed to the account registration specialist who works with your agency.
Are the EMDC and WMDC facilities available for rent for an agency retreat of our own design?
Yes, the facilities can be rented for your agencies use. We offer meeting space, lodging and food services. For further information, contact our Management Conference Services representative, Meg Bowman at 304-870-8034, or by email at meg.bowman@opm.gov.
